Best morning in Australia - I went to Mackay to watch the sunrise with wallabies in cape Hillsborough and we even saw kangaroos ! The lovely Michelle took us to a beautiful spot on the beach and a lookout spot with a stunning view! It was an amazing experience seeing wildlife so close. I can highly recommend to spend the night before in the Mackay adventure lodge as well. I had a really nice stay there. The lodge is very clean and new and breakfast is included :)
